Just got mine installed (everything except the strut braces which I already had).

I had to get the rear guards rolled as the tyres scraped with the softer suspension (rear tyres 265 x 35 x 18, rear wheels 18" x 9.5" 38mm offset).

The difference between the old suspension (cusco coilovers 10kg/mm front and 8kg/mm rear) and the new is fantastic.

I can't wait to try it on the track again.

Thanks Matt and Gary for answering all my stupid questions.

Hey im not a suspension genius... but im looking at camber arms for the back of my 33. It's not lowered yet but im getting coilovers in the future. Anyway im having really bad tyre wear on the inside.. would the rear camber arms in ur group buy fix this? And would they also be able to be used when i do lower it?? Or could it be as simple as getting a balance and alignment?

Sorry if this has been covered before but there's too many pages to go through:P

Cheers.

Just got my package in the mail. All pieces arrived safe and sound. Very happy with the deal. Thanks for all your help Matt.

If anything the only bit of "constructive criticism" I can add is that there was a definite lack of communication after the transaction. This is only a minor issue but would have been nice to be kept appraised of an ETA. Still, I suspect things have been quite busy.

Now just need to get it fitted :laugh:

is there any r33 track setting packages?

+ 1 :nyaanyaa:

Gary - Ive got the full kit, and now I remember you saying you were developing something like this?

Need a test car besides your own? :cheers:

Interested to know when you bring out the track package etc :)

Cheers,

+2 Have we got a kit available yet?

Just sent email to you Matt! Same email I sent nearly 3 weeks ago to try and get your account/payment details so I can pay for my shocks. You said your Dad was to busy to be checking emails but this has been some kind of teeth-pulling exercise... All I want to do is pay for it!

actually i think the track kit is just tighter springs, rear helper springs and a coilover kit extra mainly, with one or two other small adjustments??

still waiting on those sway bars..........................it's been a month

Try PM'ing Matt/Gary.

I checked part availabilty when i ordered my whole package last week, and everything was in stock except a strut brace.

Matt is quick to reply to PM's too.

I've got a R33 GTS series 1 sedan... I was wondering if you have the right shocks for this model.... I've heard that the rear shocks are longer in my car?

How many of the parts in this GB would fit in this model?

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
